Participants from industry are welcome. Supported by Olfactometric Laboratory - Politecnico di Milano http://www.aidic.it/nose2016 ABOUT THE CONFERENCE TOPICS PUBLICATION POLICY Since the publication of the EN 13725 on dynamic olfactometry in 2003, there have been relevant developments in the field of environmental odour assessment and control. The Conference topics will be treated in invited plenary lectures, key note lectures, selected oral presentations and poster session. Posters will stay on for the whole Conference promoting Author presentation and spontaneous discussion. The major aim of NOSE2016 is to review the latest development, needs and issues on the thematic areas covered in general by emerging references of Chemical Engineering Science. The full set of accepted papers of NOSE2016 Conference (in the form of 6 pages short papers) will be published in CET "Chemical Engineering Transactions". The quality of this publication is valued by ISBN & ISSN numbers, referenced by SCOPUS and THOMSON REUTERS (ISI Web of Knowledge, conference proceedings) citation indexes. A DOI number is also assigned to each published paper. Each Paper in the volume is covered by a copyright assigned to AIDIC Servizi S.r.l. Each Paper is evaluated for acceptance by at least three peer reviewers. The aim of the NOSE conference series is to give the opportunity to the scientific and industrial community members from all over the world to meet, exchange experiences and ideas, as well as discuss the main innovations related to odours, thereby including a wide range of different topics in order to give an all-embracing point of view on this continuously progressing issue.
